A 7.7 magnitude earthquake centered near Myanamar’s second largest city of Mandalay on Friday collapsed at least three high-rise buildings in that town and killed at least three people in neighboring Thailand in a disaster that is guaranteed to have a grievous toll, the AP reports.
At least 90 construction workers were missing at a site in Bangkok, said Thai Defense Minister Phumtham Wechayachai. The shallow quake even caused damage and injuries in China.
